AZ

We are discussing places to retire and I do not want to move to an area that has mosquitoes We currently live in Phoenix, Az which does not have as many mosquitoes as the Northeast. Are there any ocean areas that have no mosquitoes?

Do you feel that the United States of America is more an ally to the U.K. "to place in a friendly association, as by treaty" or a friend "a patron or supporter". From much of what I've read on Y/A, I'm rather curious.

I would say that from my own personal experience from living in the U.S. and being an American, that most Americans would consider the citizens of the U.K a friend, and hence an ally as well. Perhaps that is the case across the pond, perhaps not. Please indulge me if you will. Thank you for all of your answers.
